Re: 2017-18 Schedules Thread

My original copy also has UConn at Maine that weekend and I also have a tentative that has Maine at RPI the same time so who knows!

I just hope the person that told you didn't read my earlier phrase of "we played last year", because the "we" I was referring to was Ohio State.

Also, men/women have done four games in two days at HFH in the past (always fun as a band member, do a little hanging out between the games), so if your hypothesis happens to be the correct one, we probably won't see a Sunday game. Although a part of me is thinking no, based on the fact that that weekend is Homecoming weekend for football if I'm not mistaken. Maybe we'll get our 12th game there instead in order to spread out the events across the weekend (although a Saturday game would help to maximize attendance for both events; you don't have to go far between both).

Tuesday game? That's a little odd... And I only say that because SLU is also scheduled to play Canisius, and I'd think there'd be some sort of "broken travel partnering" going on there. I would venture a guess they'd be in Buffalo for 1 December... but what about the other one? After all, SLU's in the Catamount Cup, so I don't think they'd do the 3rd... you sure you didn't mean 5 or 6 January?

SLU should have 2 against Canisius at Appleton, Clarkson looks to have a home and home against Canisius. Given what tech is saying, it could be possible that Canisius is making a week long trip to the NC, and having their 2 against SLU Jan 5/6(?).

I had CCT as 2 at home originally, so I don't know where the heck this home/home thing came from...

Speculation time: Western Michigan has 4 NC games remaining. Something tells me they may play Michigan State and Notre Dame. Both could be easily done on 20-21 October, and Notre Dame around New Years.

Still plenty of room for non-con games across the east; not sure what sense can be made there yet.

* Effectively complete meaning the school has released the full schedule, or enough alternate information has been reported to determine the schedule is complete, minus exhibition games. Discretion will be used to determine whether WCHA teams will be using their entire allotment.
** Short by 2 games even if you don't take exemptions into account; 6 if you do. Hopefully they're able to get in some exhibitions.
*** Announced schedule is long by two games. Something has to give, or special permission has to be granted for two game exhibition series.

Re: 2017-18 Schedules Thread

I don't think SLU will be involved at all with our games with Canisius, I can only make the assumption that Casey wanted a game in before returning to conference play as it would've been just over a month from the last game in early December so that is why the games are split up, I personally like the idea but our non-conference is no joke and then you're adding a Canisius team that returns a lot of scoring and should be on the top of AH, it will be another great test for Clarkson.
